Airports in Mato Grosso Administered by COA Moved more than 3.3 Million Passengers in 2022

 

The movement of passengers in the four largest airports in Mato Grosso - President João Batista Figueiredo (Sinop – OPS), Marinho Franco (Rondonópolis – ROO), pilot Osvaldo Marques Dias (Alta Floresta – AFL) and Marshal Rondon (Cuiabá / Várzea Grande – CGB) – All administered by Centro-Oeste Airports (COA) – showed 37% increase compared to 2021, considering only commercial aviation. In total, more than 3.3 million people embarked or landed in enterprises during the year 2022. The aircraft movement also increased by 22% over the previous year – resulting with more than 48,000 landings and takeoffs last year.

 

“We had a real year of resumption in commercial aviation in Mato Grosso. Our airports recorded significant increase in passenger handling as well as aircraft. This growth is also due to the improvements made at airports, such as projects, studies and implementation of equipment, which culminated in the conquest of important operational certificates of the National Civil Aviation Agency (ANAC). This type of certificate enables, for example, the operation by unrestrained instruments of aircraft, as well as enabling airports to receive any approved aircraft to operate in IFR (instrument flight rules). And all this, in addition to infrastructure improvements, made it possible to attract new regular flights to the terminals, ”explains Marco Miglioorini, CEO of Centro-Oeste Airports (COA).

 

Sinop Airport (OPS) registered the largest passenger movement in its history, with over 308,000 people - 80% increase compared to 2021. Aircraft movement has also grown, with more than 2,600 aircraft through Enterprise - 67% increase over the previous year.

 

At Cuiabá International Airport (CGB), the increase in passenger movement was 38%, also compared to the previous year. The number of aircraft was over 44.3 thousand, growth of 21%.

 

Rondonópolis Airport (ROO) had almost 16% increase in the aircraft movement number (520 passed there in 2022) and registered a 32% increase in the passenger movement, with more than 42,600 people boarding or disembarking in terminal.

Finally, the Alta Floresta Airport (AFL) registered 8% growth in the number of passengers, with almost 55,000 people boarding and disembarking in the venture. More than 610 aircraft passed at the airport by 2022, 15.76% growth compared to 2021.

 

Projects for 2023

 

For the current year, COA has a major project to modernize and expand airport terminals in Mato Grosso. “Soon, we will be able to talk more about all projects and specify the improvements in each airport. The works have already begun and, for now, we can say that we will make modernizations and extensions. In Sinop, Alta Floresta and Rondonópolis, will be new terminals, fully refurbished and expanded. In Cuiabá, the expansion and modernization will place the venture among the most modern, efficient and comfortable in Brazil”, concludes Miglioorini.
